His fathers stare is obvious now. He feels full of energy and ready to just push himself and launch himself forward and swing-
"Very good, you'll be better than this old man in the forms at such a speedy rate." His father laughs and Zeno falls out of his stupor. He glances at his hands and realizes that.
Wow.
